On the Road

It was off to Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania this weekend. The Swing Machine played a concert in nearby DuBois. The concert was a big success, and well received by the near to capacity audience. Most of the band stayed at the Pantall Hotel in Punxsie - as the locals call it.

We had a fun time over breakfast this morning.

Word has it that the movie "Ground Hog Day" was not actually filmed in Punxsutawney, but in a small town in Indiana. However, Bill Murray stayed at the Pantall when they did the publicity for the movie.

There are multiple statues of groundhogs in town, as well as the real thing over at the public library. Here I am standing with "Phil" in front of the hotel.
